2011 ALBUM & SINGLE COVERS


Vinyl cover designs

We love vinyl!

Yes, we do love vinyl. In a perfect world every release on CCAP would be on vinyl. In reality most of the releases these days are digital. But, luckily we are working with a few artists that share our love of vinyl. The sound, the touch, the format, the smell, the feeling of putting that pick up down on a fresh new single, or a well used old album. There is something about vinyl that you just cant find on a digital file, a cd or a cassette tape.

Anyway, head on over to
Kjetil Brandsdal / Drid Machine´s website to check out some of the lovely covers he´s made for CCAP and our artists recently. Johnny Hancocks, Kitchen Orchestra, Sebastian Waldejer and Poor Edward have all had their covers designed and printed by Kjetil the past year. And there is more to come! These singles are printed on Arigato covers from Stumptown Printers in Portland, USA. Honorary mention also goes out to Thor Legvold at Sonovo who is doing most of the vinyl mastering for us. Great work!


The singles are available through these Bandcamp pages (all vinyl singles includes digital download):







And last but not least a double 180 gram vinyl album by Pete Johansen. This is not a Drid Machine design or Stumptown cover, but it is an amazing album




Sebastian Waldjer (Norway) vs Real Estate (USA)

Great minds think alike?

A few months ago Sebastian Waldjer released his brilliant new single «We Never Get Away Anymore». This week we stumbled upon a great new track by the US band Real Estate. These two tracks are amazingly similar. We doubt either of these artists have heard about each other before these tracks where released and that it is all a coincidence. It´s a small world after all? (™Disney)
Whats your opinion?

SEBASTIAN WALDEJER - "RISE OF THE URBAN CHILD" Album release DK 27. September - distribusjon Cosmos Music Group
Sebastian Waldejer er en sanger og låtskriver fra Stavanger. Allerede I 2008 ble han utropt til “Årets Kunstner” I sin hjemby Stavanger, før han hadde gitt ut sitt debutalbum. Sebastian slapp to EP´er før han i 2009 ga ut sitt debutalbum “The Rise Of The Urban Child” som nå for første gang lanseres i Danmark. Albumet er produsert av Børge Fjordheim (Cloroform mm) og Ashley Stubbert (Pearl Jam, President of The USA mm). The Rise Of The Urban Child viser en ung artist i utvikling, men også en artist som er i ferd med å finne sitt eget uttrykk. Det er et stillferdig og vakkert album, som samtidig er komplekst og utfordrer lytteren. Albumet fikk god mottagelse i norsk presse, men er ikke lansert utenfor Norge før . Norsk presse sammenligner Sebastian Waldejer med artister som Prefab Sprout, John Cale, Radiohead og Stavanger kollega Thomas Dybdahl.
I 2010 ga også produsenten John Derek Bishop ut et album, "Collages", som er et remix / rework av Sebastian Waldejer´s debutalbum.
Sebastian har gjort en rekke konserter i både Norge og Europe. Det siste året har han også blitt et fast medlem av Thomas Dybdahl sitt band ”That Great October Sound” og har også ved flere anledninger spilt support for Thomas Dybdahl. Thomas Dybdahl skal også produsere Sebastian Waldejer sitt nye album

Happy New Year!

A quick update on what is going on with CCAP these days.

This spring we are releasing new albums by
Sebastian Waldejer (May), Helldorado (March) and Rub A Dubs (May/June)
Sebastian is working in the studio right now to finish the recordings for his debut album. Helldorado have finished the recordings for their fourth release. The album is being mastered by
Barry Diament. Rub A Dubs are also in the final stage of recording their new album.

Jackman have just releases a new movie, Jernanger, which have received great reviews and which contains some great music by Jackman himself. Jackman released a great EP followed by an equally great album on CCAP a couple of years back. Well worth checking out if your into surf/garagerock/gypsy/punk/funk/jazz (and who isnt?)

We are also applying for funding for a new
POP08 project (named "POP09" obviously)

We are also in the process of restructuring the label. We are planning to add two sub-labels each with their own speciality and we are adding a couple of great managers to the label to work these sub labels. We will tell you more as soon as we have decided on all the details...

Happy holidays!

We are taking a well deserved (?) holiday, the office will be closed from 23. December - 28. December

For 2009 we´ve got a couple of very interesting projects lined up:
New albums by
HELLDORADO, RUB A DUBS and GEOFF BERNER as well as SEBASTIAN WALDEJER´s debut album.
Great people, great music, what more can you ask for?!

If you are in Stavanger remember to check out Helldorado live at
Checkpoint Charlie 25th December and Christer Knutsen + Hovering Orville at Cementen 27th December, not to forget our old friend Micke From Sweden at Cementen 30th December

Happy Holidays everyone!
